to the piece of waveform to be smoothed. The section of waveform
which will be processed will appear on a white background, the rest of
the waveform (not to be processed) will appear on gray.
Filter applies low pass filtering to the selected part of the
waveform (selection made as above). When selecting this function a
pop-up box allows the user to control the roll-off of the filter by
entering a number. The higher the number, the greater the filtering
effect.
Invert inverts the selected part of the signal. Note: this also inverts
the DC component of the signal as well as the AC component.
Using Equation
Editor to Generate
Arbitrary
Waveforms
WaveWiz incorporates an equation editor to enable the user to build
waveforms which can be defined by mathematical functions. It can be
found in the “Wave” Pull down menu. The waveform expression is
entered into the equation field using standard mathematical notation.
Available operations, functions, constants, variables and file types can
be found by clicking on the button. Mathematical waveforms
can be defined in either the whole or a part of the waveform records
and combined with waveforms built using the other methods.
Examples below show how this maybe used to generate waveforms of
varying complexity.
